In anticipation of a post-COVID-19 social environment, this conference will adopt digital abstracts that can be viewed on smartphones, tablets, and PC devices enabling participants to experience the world’s most advanced next-generation WOC management regardless of their location. In lieu of paper posters, the e-Poster format will be implemented; this format will allow paid registrants to access and view the abstracts and posters from any location during the conference period by entering a designated password.

For ePosters, paper copies of presentations will not be necessary but advance submission in data format will be required.

Only abstracts submitted online via the website submission system will be considered.
